Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Anyone's LO impossible to change??

Does it get easier as they get older??? My 1 yr old cries, twists, and crawls away when I try to change his diaper.  It is driving me crazy and makes changes impossible.  I try toys, food, standing him up, but it takes forever.  Is this common???

Re: Anyone's LO impossible to change??

  • Yep. We are at 19 months old and still dealing with this. He is squirmy, cries, screams, whatever during about 80% of diaper and clothes changes and it's been this way for quite a while.

  • Ugh.  Carter acts like it's pure torture to be changed.  I feel like nothing works!

  • Yes my lo does the same thing. It takes me about 10min just to change his diaper.

  • I do the leg hold. She calms down and chills for a half second.
  • dd has been this way for many months now.  I have to use the changing table or it will never be accomplished.  I usually give her something she doesn't get to play with and it catches her attention until I am finished.  Some changes are worse than others, but I am hoping she is growing out of this stage.
  • I have to just give him something i would never let him play with...like the remote control or my cell phone..yes I know bad Mom..but I can't take it
